While it is unclear whether the Pakistani man is a genuine doppelganger of Elon Musk or whether the photograph has been generated through AI, the discovery has sparked a great deal of interest on social media platforms. Many fans have expressed their surprise at the similarity between the two men, while others have expressed scepticism. 

"Thanks to AI I no longer believe anything I see on the internet," a Reddit user commented. "Somehow he looks like mix of Elon Musk and Imran Khan (former Pakistani PM). Imran Musk lol," another user joked. "Elon Mosque," a third added. "If He and Alec Baldwin had a baby, yes thats him," a fourth user wrote.

This is not the first time that an individual resembling Elon Musk has been found. A Chinese man who looked like Musk was discovered in a viral video a while ago, in which he introduced himself as Elon Musk while standing beside a car. This video also generated a great deal of buzz on the internet, with many users expressing their amusement at the uncanny resemblance. 

Elon Musk himself has reacted to videos and photos of the Chinese lookalike, jokingly suggesting that he may be part Chinese.
